University of Maryland Insists Illegals Be Referred To As ‘Citizens’

The University of Maryland is sponsoring a poster campaign encouraging students to refer to illegal immigrants as “undocumented citizens.”

The inaccurate term, first noted by Campus Reform, is promoted by the school’s “Inclusive Language Campaign,” which is throwing up posters around campus to encourage the use of friendlier language.

UMD’s Multicultural Involvement and Community Advocacy office, an official organ of the university, is running the campaign. The posters tell students that “words have power” and people should be cautious, lest they offend people with the terms they use.

“Would you say [illegal alien] if you knew I am an undocumented citizen?” the poster asks passersby.

Nicole Mehta, the program director of UMD’s Common Ground Multicultural Dialogue Program, told Campus Reform the term “undocumented citizen” was deliberate, and was chosen based on surveys of students.

  2. What a crock of liberal crap. These schools are filling our kids heads with this drivel and charging them too much for the privilege!

    Alien means you weren't born here.
    Illegal means you didn't get here legally - or you stayed longer than allowed!

    Either way, you should NOT be referred to as a citizen...you've abandoned your birth country - and haven't met the requirements here!

  8. Who cares if someone is offended by the term they get slapped with when breaking the law? They aren't seeking citizenship legally, so that means they are -illegal-. If we're going to call people "correct" terms, don't call people Caucasian if they aren't from Caucasia.
